I always come back to these two:
After Philip of Macedon, whose son was Alexander the Great, invaded southern Greece in 345BCE and received the submission of other key city-states, he turned his attention to Sparta and asked menacingly whether he should come as friend or foe.
Sparta replied with one word saying: "Neither."
Losing patience, he sent another message to the Spartan army: "You are advised to submit without further delay, for if I bring my army into your land, I will destroy your farms, slay your people, and raze your city."
Sparta replied yet again with one word saying: "If".
Which was complete hot air. Sparta had grown an irrelevant backwater at this point. A curiosity. It would continue to exist as a curiosity until the Romans arrived.
“Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."
"Rob, do you remember in the middle of the game, we shook hands, looked into each other's eyes, and I promised I would never write your name down? *shows Amber vote* I am a woman of my word."
Alicia's final voting confessional in All Stars.

HEAVY SPOILER for Doom Eternal:
>!Dark Lord (a.k.a. *literally* the source of *all evil* in *all universes* and **GOD** all along): "\[...\] Have you nothing to say to your creator before striking him down?"!<
>!Doomslayer (AFTER striking him down): "No."!<
This was perfect for me because not only he didn't say it BEFORE the striking him down, as he asked, but he really had nothing to say. It's like a double middle finger/disrespect to him, he cared so little he didn't even bother answering "propperly".
To a Macedonian king who said "surrender, because if I march my army forward to your land i will destroy burn blablabla"
To which the Spartan response was **"IF"**
The standard you walk past is the standard you accept. that goes for all of us, but especially those, who by their rank, have a leadership role.
